A 12-year-old student is charged with making a false report Friday morning at South Brunswick Middle School after more officers were assigned to all county schools while rumored threats were investigated in the wake of Wednesday’s mass shooting at a Florida high school.

Brunswick County Schools spokesman Daniel Seamans said the student told sixth-graders at 7:30 a.m. Friday he heard there would be a shooting Friday.

The students immediately told their teacher, who contacted the administration.

Brunswick County sheriff’s deputies are looking for a Southport man they say robbed Bank of America at 5070 Southport-Supply Road SE in Southport at 4:50 p.m. Wednesday.

Johnathan Brooks Faulkner, 36, of East Boiling Spring Lakes Road is wanted on a charge of robbery with a dangerous weapon.

Faulkner is described as a white man between 5-foot-9 and 5-foot-10 with dark shoulder-length curly hair and facial hair. He was wearing a blue “mechanic-style” jumpsuit and a black hat with orange letter on the front.
